I got this message from one of the guys i really like: "Hey Coach, thanks for the call to chat about Miles Moultrie. I don't think he's ruled out Tennessee Tech. yet, but he certainly doesn't talk much about your program."

I figured he's possible with a pulldown, but is he a super reach that i'd have to do ridiculous number of scouting trips to get him?

Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think thats a pulldown message at all. I think that message indicates you're good to go with the recruit and don't need to pull him down.

Also, even if the coach tells you the offense/defense that doesn't necessarily mean they are recruitable. The coach will always tell you the O/D, the real key is in the first paragraph. Usually the line is pretty obvious "player has mentioned school as a fall back option", or something like that. The only ambiguous comment is something about having a one in a million chance, do you believe in miracles? Its my understanding that means the player is not recruitable, but that message is pretty rare.

+1 Clouse is right. That's not a pulldown message, and the first paragraph will tell you whether he is recruitable or not.
